Mid-Century Modern Danish-Style Lounge Chair with Southwestern-Patterned Cushions

Story

In the 1960s, American homes underwent a design revolution as heavy, dark furniture was replaced by airy, sculptural wooden frames. This chair represents that golden era of casual, comfortable living. Its current upholstery tells a second story of a later owner who wanted to inject warmth and global texture into a classic modernist silhouette.

Maker / Origin

While unsigned, the sweeping, continuous curve of the armrests that flow into the back support is highly characteristic of mid-century manufacturers like Selig Imperial or Baumritter, who imported Danish designs or manufactured high-quality interpretations in the United States.

Condition & Value

The wooden frame appears to be in excellent structural condition with a beautiful, warm patina and only minor, age-appropriate scuffs on the lower legs. The cushions appear plump, clean, and free of major fading, staining, or fraying along the seams.
